It’s all about home-made pasta daily where Chef Vish Mayekar is now running the kitchen and making creative pastas with two different features each week. It had been awhile since I last dined inside at Caffe La Tana and this visit gave me a chance to enjoy their wonderful ambience with some delicious Italian dishes and treats.
1st dish:
Farro & Chickpea Salad
Italian dressing, pickled chili, capers, salsa Verde, roasted pumpkin seeds
2nd dish:
Sundried tomato & Ricotta Tortelli
Artichoke and caper sauce, toasted walnut, shaved Asiago; delicious dish.
3rd dish:
Two-Tone Pappardelle
Pistachio mint pesto, arugula, Buratta, lemon oil; loved the naturally colored pasta in the delicious pesto.
4th dish:
Mexican chocolate Bombolene, Vanilla and black pepper Bombolene and a Cortado
